OPERATION
GENERAL CLEANING TIPS
1. Apply the detergent so that it thoroughly covers
the cleaning surface. Apply the detergent from
bottom to top to prevent the detergent from
sliding down and streaking. Wait a couple of
minutes for the detergent to break down the
dirt and grime. Use a brush to lightly scrub
heavily soiled areas. NEVER allow the detergent
to dry on the cleaning surface.
2. Replace black 65° quick connect tip with another
color tip.
NEVER replace quick connect tip
when gun is triggered.
3. After using detergents, flush the suction system
by placing the detergent suction tube into a
bucket of clean water.
5. Cleaning Power
The easiest way to regulate the cleaning power of
your pressure washer is by changing the distance
from the surface you are cleaning. Begin spraying
with a wide fan pattern while standing several feet
from the surface. Slowly move closer to the object
you are cleaning, adjusting the spray pattern as
necessary, until you find the most effective cleaning
technique.
NOTE: Some units also may have a pressure
adjustment knob on the pump that can adjust the
pressure (models 9032PW and 1340PW).
6. Final Rinse
The final rinse should start at the bottom and work
upward. Make sure that you thoroughly rinse the
surface and that you remove all detergent.
7. Shutdown
1. Be sure all detergent is flushed from system.
2. Turn the engine OFF.
3 Turn the water supply OFF.
4. After the engine and water supply are turned
OFF, trigger the gun to depressurize the system.
NEVER turn the water supply
off before turning the
engine/motor off. Serious damage could occur to the
pump and/or engine/motor.
NEVER disconnect the high
pressure discharge hose from
the machine while the system is pressurized. To
depressurize, turn engine/motor off, turn water
supply off and squeeze gun trigger 2-3 times.

the tank and run in normal operating mode for
at least five minutes.

trigger the gun to release pressure in the high-
